Not Disgraced

The Reserves lost at Ibrox last Saturday but Dame Fortune wasn't on their side. They were down 0-2 at half time but came back fighting after the interval. They got only one goal but the Light Blues were hard pressed to keep out the eager Young Dons and must have been thankful to hear the final whistle. The Rangers second team had more of the game in the early stages and deserved their interval lead even though their opening goal was some-what lucky in that it was deflected by a Dons' defender.
